down in a few more convenience stores.

place to hide out while the sun cools down.

I was laying low in a South Texas town, in a motel room, thought I couldn't be found.
[Em] And I said a prayer as the rain came down and [D] the wind began to [G] blow.
_ _ I was fast asleep in the middle of the night when the cops came by, turned on the lights.
And [Em] when they broke down the door and they read me my rights, they [D] said,
Come on boy, [C] let's go.
_ [D] Well, they threw me in cuffs and they hauled me off the jail.
They [G] took everything I had and they threw me in some cell.
[D] I guess there's just a limit on how far you can go, but [C] till the day I die, everyone's gonna know
that I'm a natural, _ [D] not a rebel, _ [G] not as sweet as an angel, and [Em] mean as a devil.
